"Disney Blasts Off " TV Guide, March 5, 1955

As part of my interest in space flight I bring you Liberace!

Well actually just a nice piece of ephemera about the Disney Man in Space television program. I loved these shows and the children's books that went with them. So here is the TV Guide entry for when it was first shown as well as an article promoting the show.

Notice they actually misspelled "Wernher von Braun" as "Verner"The article was very nice with some rarely seen color stills from the show:

The designs in the show look very similar to the Collier's illustration that were also designed by Wernher von Braun.
